It's a late Roman, somewhere in the 300's AD - I can't be much more specific with those pics (and you're probably pushing it to get better ones of that coin. My instincts are either Constans or Valens (Valens would be my guess) - it looks like an emperor with a short name. I can't make much out of the reverse type, but the mint looks more like Siscia than anything else. (I think it reads ASIS-something).
